Atascadero Homes And Businesses Still Without Gas After Line Rupture

There’s no definitive end in sight for most Atascadero homeowners and businesses that have been putting up with natural gas-related problems since Sunday morning.

That’s when a waterline at the intersection of Entrada and Lewis avenues developed a hole and started blasting water, mixing with surrounding sand and gravel, eventually rupturing a 2 inch gas line.

Officials say they have removed more than 5,000 gallons of water from the gas line and plan to go door to door to make sure all the water is removed from the lines of homes and businesses in the affected area.
